Revelation 14:9-10
Context14:9 A 1 third angel 2 followed the first two, 3 declaring 4 in a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and his image, and takes the mark on his forehead or his hand, 14:10 that person 5 will also drink of the wine of God’s anger 6 that has been mixed undiluted in the cup of his wrath, and he will be tortured with fire and sulfur 7 in front of the holy angels and in front of the Lamb.
